About this study

Official title: Comparative Study of Molecular Markers in Cutaneous Inflammation Between Psoriatic Lesional Skin and Healthy Non-lesional Skin

The project topic consists on re-conciliating the fine tuners of the gene expression "microRNAs" and the immunopathogenic occasions responsible for skin disorders in context of skin infection and inflammation such as psoriasis. The skin is a network of effector cells and molecular mediators that constitute a highly sophisticated "Skin Immune System (SIS) described by Jan D Bos in 1986. The cutaneous homeostasis maintenance is dependent on the cross talk between several immune sentinels present in the different compartments of the skin as well as the interplay between innate and adaptive immune responses. The whole is under the control of gene regulation. However, cutaneous homeostasis disruption occurs when the SIS safe framework erroneously sends aggravation signals due to gene regulation disbalance via inflammatory cellular and molecular mediators into the site of infection causing chronic inflammation characterized by thick red irritated skin lesions. The latter was showed to have a characteristic microRNA (regulators of gene expression) signature.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Increase Ratio

    Increase ratio between relative expression of different genes (miR-21 and InterLeukin-22) of psoriatic lesional skin and non-psoriatic skin

    Measured: Day 0

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlation between Psoriasis Area Severity Index and miR-21 expression

    Measured: Day 0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Biopsy in people with Psoriasis, run by Centre Hospitalier Régional d'Orléans at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Increase Ratio (time frame: Day 0). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03423004, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Dec 2019.
